The tragic ending

The relationship between Anchises and Aphrodite became firmer and deeper day by day, and the two friends stopped speaking to each other. The Olympeion family threatened to disown Aphrodite if she continued, and Hera, the perfidious Hera, had a dominant role over the impulsive Zeus. If it were for the simple thought of the now Grand Admiral the brilliant boy was not such a bad candidate, but his wife He ate reproaches and hints every time he could.

Finally, Zeus himself spoke with Odysseus, he wanted him to organize a meeting with Anchises to resolve the issue once and for all. Odysseus, poorly advised by his family, agreed and arranged the meeting between the two men, the admiral and the boy, who was not even a cadet.
